Three approaches are commonly used to treat social anxiety disorder, panic disorder and depression:
- Medication therapy involves taking a drug, like an antidepressant, to treat the symptoms of your condition.
- Psychotherapy involves seeing a trained counselor who talks with you about your condition, listens to you, encourages you and works with you to find solutions.
- Combination therapy, is when you combine medication and psychotherapy treatments.
Your healthcare provider is relying on you or your loved one to talk about your feelings. By talking openly to your healthcare provider, he or she can decide on the best treatment plan.
After starting treatment, it is important to continue talking to your healthcare provider to help keep you on the road to recovery. Discuss your progress openly, and be sure to report any side effects or discomfort you may be having. |
